Spiced Brown Sugar Christmas CookiesI had to make another batch of Christmas cookies, and since it was my 4th batch of sugar cookies in as many weeks, I decided to go for something a little different this time around. For the dough, I made a spiced brown sugar cookie dough. They turned out to be sort of a cross between a gingerbread cookie and a sugar cookie. They… |

Rasberry PochettesThese are a simple little treat with an indulgent cream cheese crust filled with jam. You can use whatever flavor you have on hand, I thought the raspberry would be pretty and it's one of my favorite flavors of jam. That and my husband won't use it for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches so we weren't out of it when I went to make… |

Rocky Road FudgeFudge is a classic Christmas dessert but not one I have a ton of experience with. I've made a couple of different types in the past and found it to be much easier than I expected and this recipe ended up being very easy as well. The most time consuming part is chopping up the chocolate.If you haven't finished your Christmas baking… |

Sugar Cookies for ChristmasFrosted sugar cookies are a staple on almost everyone's Christmas baking list. I've made them lots of different ways over the years but my favorite recipe is this one. These cookies bake up without changing shape so its easy to see the details from the cookie cutter. They stay fresh for quite a while and don't turn rock hard as… |

Butterscotch Pumpkin BlondiesDo you still have an extra can or two of pumpkin in your pantry from Thanksgiving? Or maybe you're like me and you buy a dozen cans as soon as it hits the shelves so that you don't run out. I'm down to three cans and thinking I should pick up a few more because I really don't accept that I can only use pumpkin in the fall.… |

Classic Apple PieApple pie intimidates a lot of people. Despite looking relatively simple and ordinary, it can be tricky to get the filling to have the right consistency. You want the filling to be thick but not dry, if its too liquidy the crust will be soggy. You want to be able to see the apple slices; tender but not mushy. You want the crust to… |

Pumpkin RollWhile this is a classic recipe, it was one I've never made on my own before. It's a really impressive dessert, especially when you serve it to people who aren't familiar with it because it looks much more difficult than it is. I got lots of "oohs and aahs" when I sliced it at Thanksgiving. This requires less than 20 minutes of… |

Apple Cinnamon Monkey BreadI've posted a monkey bread recipe before and its my favorite "special" day breakfast treat. But when I saw this recipe on the blog What's Cooking Chicago, I knew I had to try it. She adapted the recipe from Paula Deen's Gorilla Bread Recipe - which I've actually tried before but wasn't really impressed with. The cubes of cream… |

Classic Yellow Birthday CakeI made some birthday cakes for a one year old's birthday a couple of weeks ago. The birthday girl's dad has nicknamed her "bug" so they were going with a cute girly bug theme for the party. Such a cute idea! The plan was to do a half sheet cake and two smash cakes -- one for the party and one for pictures.I topped one smash cake… |
